BACKGROUND: Body composition is increasingly being recognized as an important prognostic factor for health outcomes across cancer, liver cirrhosis, and critically ill patients. Computed tomography (CT) scans, when taken as part of routine care, provi...
Support vector machine (SVM)-based multivariate pattern analysis (MVPA) has delivered promising performance in decoding specific task states based on functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) of the human brain. Conventionally, the SVM-MVPA requir...
In conventional non-quantitative magnetic resonance imaging, image contrast is consistent within images, but absolute intensity can vary arbitrarily between scans. For quantitative analysis of intensity data, images are typically normalized to a cons...
The measurement of bone mineral density for osteoporosis has always been the focus of researchers because it plays an important role in bone disease diagnosis. However, because of X-ray image noise and the large difference between the bone shapes of ...
OBJECTIVE: To develop a deep learning-based artificial intelligence (AI) scheme for predicting the likelihood of the ground-glass nodule (GGN) detected on CT images being invasive adenocarcinoma (IA) and also compare the accuracy of this AI scheme wi...

Acute lymphoblastic leukaemia (ALL), which is due to the malfunctioning in the bone marrow, is common among people all over the world. The haematologist suffers a lot to discriminate the presence of leukaemia in the patients using the blood smears. T...
Bioprosthetic heart valves (BHVs) are commonly used as heart valve replacements but they are prone to fatigue failure; estimating their remaining life directly from medical images is difficult. Analyzing the valve performance can provide better guida...
BACKGROUND: Axillary lymph node status is important for breast cancer staging and treatment planning as the majority of breast cancer metastasis spreads through the axillary lymph nodes. There is currently no reliable noninvasive imaging method to de...
Twin-to-Twin Transfusion Syndrome is commonly treated with minimally invasive laser surgery in fetoscopy. The inter-foetal membrane is used as a reference to find abnormal anastomoses. Membrane identification is a challenging task due to small field ...
